"You're all here, what a coincidence."

When Madam Yu walked in and saw Zhiyan and the Crown Princess, she was not surprised at all. Instead, she smiled brightly and looked at the two of them with familiarity.

First, he asked about Zhiyan's food and accommodation in the past few days, and then looked at the Crown Princess and said, "You look much thinner. You must have suffered a lot outside."

The Crown Princess was alert, but still stood up and greeted, "Thank you Madam for your concern, I am doing fine."

These three people are considered to be the most noble women in the Yan Kingdom palace. Now they are gathered together, but they all have their own thoughts in their hearts.

Madam Yu seemed to have come only to show her concern for the harem and the younger generation, so she did not stay long and left in a hurry.

This left Zhiyan and the Crown Princess looking at each other in bewilderment.

"My beauty, please have a good rest. I will take my leave now." The Crown Princess was also a knowledgeable and tactful person. She did not keep bothering Zhiyan. Her intention was fulfilled, so she took her leave.

After she left, the palace people placed the gifts she brought in front of Zhiyan for her to review.

In addition to the thousand-year-old ginseng that the prince brought to the king, the princess also presented a bunch of things, including precious jewelry, ornaments, and several medicinal herbs that were as precious as the thousand-year-old ginseng.

Zhiyan took a quick look and then had all the gifts put into the warehouse.

In this deep palace, no one knows who is the hidden mastermind.

Madam Yu secretly arranged for someone to put a poison that would induce labor in the gift that the Crown Princess gave to Zhiyan, but this matter could not be hidden from everyone.

The people from Qianqi Tower who had infiltrated various places in the deep palace came into play at this time. They discovered Madam Yu's arrangements in advance and quickly reported them to Shi Li.

She was originally accompanying the little princess on the swing, and out of the corner of her eye she saw a plain-looking maid hurriedly walking towards them, stopping not far away, and making a special gesture to her with an anxious look on her face.

Shi Li immediately recognized that this was Qianqi Tower's secret code, and would never alert her unless it was an emergency.

Obviously something big had happened.

Shi Li frowned slightly, glanced at the ignorant little princess, then quietly took a step back, and then another step back.

After leaving the sight of the little princess and others, he hurried to the maid.

"Beautiful Lady Zi..." The maidservant lowered her voice and hurriedly recounted the story.

Shi Li was shocked.

Now Zhiyan is in the late stage of pregnancy. Her body is already very weak due to the fake death drug, and her pregnancy has been difficult. Any disturbance will be very dangerous.

Now that she has not yet reached her due date, if she is given strong drugs to induce labor, it would be tantamount to a death warrant.

Shi Li could send someone to Zhiyan Palace to remind them immediately, but she would not be at ease if she didn't go there herself to check it out.

After thinking for a moment, Shi Li no longer hesitated and followed the maid away.

Not long after she left, the little princess sitting on the swing slowly stopped and looked into the distance thoughtfully.

Madam Yu had been in charge of the harem for many years, and she had replaced the gifts sent by the Crown Princess without anyone noticing.

The odorless medicine was smeared on the gift and passed in front of Zhiyan. Even if just a little bit was inhaled, it would be fatal to Zhiyan, who was weak in the late stage of pregnancy.

When Shi Li hurried to Zhiyan Palace, Zhiyan was leaning on the couch drinking the bird's nest that the palace servant had just delivered. She was very surprised to see Shi Li appear.

In broad daylight, she couldn't imagine why Shi Li came.

"Is the medicine I gave you here?" Shi Li didn't have time to explain too much, and stepped forward to hold Zhiyan's hand.

Zhiyan nodded without comment. Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly felt a contraction and pain in her stomach, and her eyes widened immediately.

"Go and call the imperial physician and the midwife." At this time, Shi Li simply made arrangements for her and seized the remaining time.

The palace servants around didn't know what was going on. They looked at each other in confusion, and only took action after Zhiyan nodded.

Although Zhiyan didn't know what was going on, because her stomach was hurting so much, she could guess that she was being plotted against. She frowned, took a deep breath, and looked at Shi Li dependently.

"I'll leave the rest to you." The incident happened suddenly, and she couldn't trust anyone else, so she only trusted Shi Li.

Shi Li nodded to her without hesitation, "Don't worry, everything will be fine."

Zhiyan wanted to say more, but her stomach hurt more and more, so she gritted her teeth and endured the pain. She didn't want to say the rest.
